'Justice for J6' rally starts and ends with small crowds and tight security

The most anticipated visit by right-wing activists to the nation’s capital since a mob stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 ended with a whimper Saturday, as demonstrators supporting the rioters found themselves far outnumbered by police, journalists and counterprotesters.

Although the protesters returned to the scene of a historically grievous attack on American democracy, it was immediately obvious that much had changed. The Capitol grounds — where poorly prepared police fought a losing, hand-to-hand battle against President Donald Trump’s supporters just over eight months ago — were secured Saturday with metal fences and hundreds of officers. The halls of Congress were all but deserted. No president, or former president, delivered a bellicose speech urging that his election loss be overturned.

Police made just four arrests throughout the day, seizing two weapons. The relative peace and quiet was a welcome turn for the U.S. Capitol Police, whose leaders endured blistering criticism in the months after Jan. 6 for inadequate security.

In recent weeks the agency had repeatedly warned that it would have a large force in the field, aided by police departments from across the region and the National Guard. The entire D.C. police force was activated Friday and Saturday. The massive law enforcement presence Saturday was unmistakable, with many in full riot gear and others on horseback.

1. I wonder what the thugs will do now to get their mojo back?

Will they silently disappear with their tails between their legs? Will they double down on their hate filled rhetoric and bullying behavior?

23. I believe that the Jan 6 insurrection should have been met with lethal force.

When they breached the nation's capitol legally erected barricades and refused to obey lawful orders it would have been fully justified in my opinion to have been subject to being shot. I don't know what orders the Capitol police had, but use of teargas and other nonlethal means was not effective and failed to provide adequate protection.

26. There capitol police were NOT given use of lethal force

On Jan6. Hence why this was an inside job to begin. This has been discussed ad nauseum on this board so u can search for the threads. We have a real POTUS with a real impartial DOJ now. And w the Con out of office, his minions who are pining to foment more violence are playing a fool's game. If they were smart they would have learned from those already rounded up,and understand that with the entire MSM & personal cell fones all over the joint that their faces will be matched with those at the 1/6 event as well. One cant fix stupid.

4. Some

[Ishoutandscream2]

5. These people are stupid, but...

I think many were probably too afraid to show up. Many of them are cowards, after all.

[Deminpenn]

6. Lots in jail, too

600+ arrests to date.

Jmho, but the Jan 6th riot is to the white supremacist movement what the Battle of Gettysburg was the the Confederacy, the high water mark of their war.

Neutering the DC National Guard.
These assholes are afraid when there may be retaliation.
In other words, the fix was in for 1/6.

Thx for the oops.

18. Good.

I live in the DMV. I am glad they were over-prepared and went with extra precautions.

19. The MAGAts are naturally cowards

That's why they always want to go after the weakest among us. They go after women, minority groups, the poor and the sick. So, when they heard there would be lots of police they ran away.

MAGATs rarely go after the filthy rich, religious leaders and those with power. They are afraid of them.

But COVID-19 is taking a big bite out of their numbers, so there are fewer of them then before.
